Finally wicd 1.5.1
Little 1.5.1 days ago the famous manager of nets has been released wicd wired and wireless. After a long beta series and release candidates finally are themselves joints to the stable version dedicated above all to the resolution of some bug that plagued the version precedence. In order to enjoy wicd it is necessary to disinstallare network manager (the two managers are incompatible), to carry out the download of the packages for Ubuntu and to proceed here with the istallazione.
Previously I have tested a version of development of Network Manager 0,7 and must say that although the most remarkable improvements of this last one, wicd is still sure advanced for power, flexibility and facility of use. N.M has from its a greater thoroughness, as it succeeds to manage not only the logons wired and wireless, but also the VPN and the PPP, however this not enough to fargli assigning the palm of better manager than net. Of the rest for the logons point to point there are tool much comfortable like Gnome ppp or Kppp. Quite impietoso the comparison version 0,6 of N.M lacking in the tool for VPN and PPP of which over and plagued from two fastidiosissmi bug: respective the difficulty in the configuration of the nets wireless and the browser firefox that it comes launch in modality not online when N.M is disconnected.
